he BJP senses that it is losing the Lok Sabha elections and was, hence, resorting to newer tactics against the Opposition, said Bhupesh Baghel.
A day after the Election Commission (EC) notified the dates for the Lok Sabha elections, former Chhattisgarh Chief Minister and Congress leader Bhupesh Baghel on Sunday called the now-junked electoral bond scheme the "biggest scam of the year".
Speaking to reporters, the Congress leader said, "This is the biggest scam of the year. The BJP senses that it is losing the Lok Sabha elections and was, hence, resorting to newer tactics against the Opposition."
However, coming out in defence of the scheme, Union Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare, SP Singh Baghel, said the Opposition was hurling unfounded allegations at the BJP over the electoral bond scheme.
